Custom Window Treatments consist of many styles a few of which are Custom Draperies and Custom Valances. Custom Window Treatments should be both beautiful and functional. When making decisions about which styles to use in which rooms, it's important to look at each room individually. June Jackson has been helping customers make decisions about Custom Window Treatments for over 24 years.

First, you might consider the location of the room. North facing windows bring in consistent light but could subject your house to the coldest exposure. For this you would want to consider energy-saving Custom Window Treatments. They will also help with the heating and cooling bills. That is something to consider in each room of your house.

East-facing windows offer bright light early in the morning. That means that the room will heat up quickly. There are options that will help capture the heat so it diffuses it before it comes in. Roman Shades with Custom Valances would work well also in these areas as well as Custom Draperies.

West-facing windows are the worst for letting in the most light that is harmful. Rooms with these windows should be ones that block out the UV rays. You would want to consider energy-saving Custom Window Treatments in these areas with special lining. And do it before it's too late. We have recieved calls from clients who were beginning to notice that their wood floors and furniture were fading due to the sun beaming into the room.

South-facing windows are the best for consistent, natural light. You want to have Custom Window Treatments that let in light but also have the option for protection against the light.

The next thing to consider is style. What do you like and dislike in Custom Window Treatments? Styles are always changing, but you can't go wrong with a timeless traditional style. June Jackson will work with you to hlep you decide what will make you happy overall and in the long run.

In our area, most of what we do is Traditional, French Country, Old World, Tuscan and Gothic. Some other styles you may want to consider are Old American, Contemporary, Simplistic, Rustic, and European.

The next thing to consider is your lifestyle.

Are there only adults in the house or are there children running around. As simple as a question this is, it will make you stress out if you pick the wrong one. When there are children around you need to think safety first. This doesn't have to limit you but there are definitely some Custom Drapery and Custom Valance choices which might not be a practical with children in the home. June Jackson can assist you is decided which styles to use when it comes to safety.

Another major factor is pricing. What is your budget?
